I am playing with the layout to try and get the Podomatic embed worked into the main page. Many years ago it was setup that way. I really feel like since this site is mostly focust on the production of Tiger Claw Radio, you should be able to click one button and have it play.

I'm still messing with it, but the archive still steams in from the player down at the bottom.

YouTuber “LetsTestDrive” released a video entitled “Logitech
G27 Wheel Mod - How To Install Guide – Tutorial” where he took a racing wheel
peripheral and replaced the wheel with a larger one. Even as person who mildly enjoys
racing sims, this is some mad-scientist level modding.

Just a quick message to those of you who listen to Tiger Claw Radio by Podomatic, or by the iTunes account that Podomatic sends out. To make up for TCR not coming out there over the last month, the four missing episodes are going up on Podomatic today, and it will henceforth be regularly updated.

By now I'm sure you have heard that Nintendo has pulled the plug on the NES Classic. Nintendo has now lived up to their long standing reputation of not producing enough hardware to go around and not fulfilling the market desire to have inexpensive versions of the games we grew up on.

I thought this thing was silly when it came out. The whole idea seemed to be founded on pretending the Raspberry Pi didn't exist. Now we say goodbye to the best console Nintendo has put out since the Wii.

Richard Stallman, one of the most interesting individuals in computers, appeared on the Lunduke hour recently. I could not get enough. along with Bryan Lunduke being one of my favorite podcasters, this did not disappoint.

Makers of Out of the Park Baseball 18, an Official Licensee of MLB.com, MLBPA, and MiLB.com, will work closely with Thunder to further the game’s authenticity and reach

Follow-up to Metacritic’s 2016 PC Game of the Year features deep experience of Trenton’s historic successes, as well as those of hundreds of other major and minor league clubs

Out of the Park Developments, an official licensee of MLB.com, the MLBPA, and MiLB.com, today announced a strategic partnership with the Trenton Thunder, the Double-A affiliate of the New York Yankees. The partnership will further extend the rich authenticity that Out of the Park Baseball 18 offers fans, including the ability to experience each and every Major and Minor League club from every baseball season ever played, beginning in 1871 and continuing through 2017. In addition, Trenton Thunder staff and players will utilize Out of the Park Baseball 18 to run simulations and projections to provide strategic analysis as the 2017 season progresses.

I'm toying with the ID of embedding podcasts that are uploaded direct to YouTube in such a way that only the audio plays, and the YouTube video gets credit for the play. The instructions to do this can be found here.

Edit: I have rolled this out with TCR 180, but I think the whole thing had limited success. It seems like some ad-blockers are blocking it. Oh well. At least the YouTube embed, although bulky in a webpage layout, still seems to work.
